From November 1, Cold Storage, Giant, Guardian and 7-Eleven stores across Singapore will start accepting payments through the Tencent-operated platform. The initiative was announced by Singapore Dairy Farm (the regional parent company of the four brands) and Singaporean mobile payment company NETS, which offers cashless QR payment services at more than 55,000 terminals across the country. Chinese nationals based in Singapore or visiting the country as tourists will be able to scan NETS QR code terminals in the 600 retail outlets with WeChat Pay, with transactions conducted in yuan based on the point-of-sale foreign exchange rate. Dairy Farm and NETS said in their statement that the cooperation with WeChat Pay would help serve the growing number of Chinese tourists visiting Singapore. According to the Singapore Tourism Board, arrivals from China in 2017 were up by 13 percent on the previous year, reaching 3.2 million. While WeChat Pay and its rival, Alibaba's Alipay, have ventured overseas into several countries, the services are only available to Chinese nationals.No Use China. No Use France.
